President Trump repeats his assertion that Iranian cultural sites would be fair game as military targets if Tehran carries through on its vow to attack Americans, dismissing views that striking cultural sites would constitute a war crime. https://t.co/39VlUNgz31

.@realDonaldTrump tells reporters on Air Force One he is prepared to go after Iranian cultural sites: “They’re allowed to use roadside bombs and blow up our people and we’re not allowed to touch their cultural sites? It doesn’t work that way.”

First, this was a total falsehood by @SecPompeo. Anyone can read what Trump tweeted. Second, Trump reiterated tonight to reporters on his plane that he would target cultural sites in Iran. He’s doubling down on it. https://t.co/ijYFdMW2ix

….targeted 52 Iranian sites (representing the 52 American hostages taken by Iran many years ago), some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian culture, and those targets, and Iran itself, WILL BE HIT VERY FAST AND VERY HARD. The USA wants no more threats!

Even the tenth of Muharram (Ashoura) processions can’t be compared to the funeral of #QassemSuleimani in #Tehran, the last huge funeral I saw in Tehran was Rafsanjani’s in 2017, it was huge, but not as today’s which I can say, cumulatively, is bigger than Imam Khomeini’s in 1989 pic.twitter.com/VTWB9dwWkp
